Starman and Nova

 

The only thing creepier than giant aliens are giant alien insects! Thanks to Kent Brockman of The Simpsons for the inspiration for this cover.

  1. I LOVE THIS STARMAN VERSION & THIS OUTFIT. NOVA IS A GREAT TEAM UP MATCH FOR HIM TOO. A NICE FAREWELL COVER TO THE YEAR 2025. I HOPE WE GET TO SEE ANOTHER 365 COVERS IN 2026. THE WAY THE WORLD IS GOING NOW U JUST NEVER KNOW...

  3. I can just picture this as a cover with Blue & Gold, and one of them quipping to Nova: "This looks like a job for Hank Pym!"

    Sorry; any mention of "The Simpsons" brings out the silly in me. And, if it's lasted roughly three times longer than "The Flintstones," it's got to be striking the right kind of funny bone with the viewers!

    Btw: have any of your centennial covers (let alone, any of the millenial super spectaculars) ever been coincidentally posted on a major holiday?

    1. I think the “Simpsons” several times longer than the “Flintstones”.

    2. That's why I used the adverb "roughly." Several covers too great a multitude of sines.

      Sorry! Just a little mathematical humor ;-)

  4. That's the strangest looking ant I've ever seen, did Wally Wood get the idea from seeing THEM! or was it from an earlier EC story?

    1. The way I hear it, Wally Wood reused _anything_ he thought was in the public domain. ---Cary.

  5. But being in charge, would he really be an overlord, or something more like a Presid-ANT?

  6. Not the villain. He's the ANTi-hero.

    1. A bad punster would be Scott Lang quipping to his predecessor: "Way to go, Dr. Hankenstein!"
